Crazy, 500 yuan also dare to make a science fiction blockbuster

"Even when most people are watching him, they may feel bored."

"Please buy tickets wisely."

"You should buy tickets because you like the movie, not because you like the director. Don't put the cart before the horse."

After seeing the tweet sent by Ye Heng, the fans thought for a while, calmed down, and refunded the movie tickets.

But there were also some people who appreciated Ye Heng's "persuading" attitude and immediately pre-purchased movie tickets.

Back and forth, Ye Heng's pre-sale box office of 5 million, not only did not decrease at all, but also increased by 1 million, which made Ye Heng smile wryly.

But when Xiang Dang saw this scene, he immediately became angry.

They filmed the film to let more people see the current problems in the beautiful country, and then they used it to make the donkey party step down.

But now, Ye Heng is preventing the audience from entering the theater, which is destroying their plan! !

So a few minutes later, Ye Heng received a call from Roland.

"Ye Heng, quickly delete that tweet!"

"The higher-ups are already angry now, saying that if you don't delete it, it will be considered a breach of contract!"

Ye Heng had already thought about this situation before sending that tweet, but luckily he had thought up his words in advance.

"But that tweet can't be deleted."

"Can't delete? Why can't it be deleted?"

Roland was immediately confused by Ye Heng's words.

"Our films are socially themed and racially discriminatory. Although there is nothing wrong with the plot of the film itself, it lacks prominent points."

"Few people watch this type of movie, but now because of my fame, the box office of the movie is too high."

"And in this way, it will attract many viewers who are not interested in the subject matter at all."

Roland was taken aback when he heard this, "Isn't that good?"

Ye Heng immediately shook his head.

"There are more people watching, and although the movie box office has gone up, there must be more people who don't like movies."

"At that time, a bunch of people will say that the talent is exhausted, and the movie is not made well,"

"Of course, it's a trivial matter that just affects the reputation of the movie, but I'm afraid that everyone's attention will be focused on this and the theme of the movie will be ignored."

"And if the word-of-mouth of this movie is too bad, it may affect the publicity effect of the next two movies."

"Let me explain in advance, even if someone thinks the movie is not to their liking, they can come up with my tweet at that time, and no one will say anything."

After hearing these words, Roland on the other end of the phone nodded.

"Okay, I'll help you relay it to your superiors and see what they think."

After speaking, he hung up the phone, and a few minutes later Ye Heng received a message from Roland.

"The superior said there is no need to delete it."

Seeing the news, Ye Heng had a smile on his face.

What I said to Roland earlier was all nonsense, and Ye Heng didn't care.

And even if the next two movies really didn't achieve the promotional effect, he didn't care.

He is only responsible for making good movies, and the rest has nothing to do with him.

The only purpose of posting that tweet is to hope that everyone can buy tickets rationally, and I don't want everyone to go to the cinema to watch a movie that is not interesting at all.

In the next few days, Ye Heng's tweets seemed to have really stirred things up.

After the pre-order box office stopped at 6 million, it has not moved.

The film finally opened on Christmas Eve.

From 8 o'clock in the evening until 12 o'clock, at a glance, more than half of the theaters are showing "Black Dog".

In the movie theater, someone fell asleep after watching half of it.

Although the plot of the movie is much stronger than the movies released in the same period.

But most of these people who came to the cinema to watch movies had seen Ye Heng's previous movies.

Their expectations for Ye Heng's movie are also extremely high.

"Black Dog" is a solid masterpiece, whether it is the plot, the acting skills of the actors or the depth of the topic, they are all first-class.

But if compared with Ye Heng's previous movies, it seems a bit "inferior".

This is also one of the common problems of this type of movie.

Most of the literary films and social-themed films have high word-of-mouth and low box office.

Because it is always a minority who are interested in him.

But now, there are many people who don't love this type of movie gathered in the movie theater.

Chapter 158: Bring Back Memories

On the night the movie was released, Ye Heng didn't go to the cinema to watch the movie.

Not long ago, he agreed to the godfather's invitation to have dinner at the godfather's house.

Mrs. Timis naturally did not refuse, and followed Ye Heng to the godfather's house.

But when he entered the godfather's house, Ye Heng, who was worried that he would look a little out of place, was relieved.

He saw an old acquaintance, John.

Immediately afterwards, he saw another somewhat familiar face.

Sonny.

The person who was looking for him at the Continental Hotel that day.

And Shan Ni obviously noticed Ye Heng, and immediately frowned, with a look of displeasure in his eyes.

"Xiaoye, sit down."

The godfather asked Xiaoye for a seat, and arranged Mrs. Timis and Ye Heng together.

And the other person beside Ye Heng is John, but the one next to him is Sonny who dislikes him very much.

It was a long table with a dozen people sitting on it, not all of them were the godfather's family members.

Among them, Ye Heng didn't even know half of them.

The godfather, the godfather's eldest son Shanny, the youngest son Mike, and Mike's girlfriend, who seems to be called Kay.

"Father, why did you invite a person from the Dragon Kingdom?"

Shan Ni asked maliciously, obviously full of prejudice against Ye Heng.

When the godfather heard this, he immediately frowned.

But today is Christmas Eve, and he doesn't want to make the atmosphere too bad.

"Sonny, everyone here today is my guest."

"They didn't come here for no reason, but came after being invited by me."

"If you are asking such unreasonable things to our guests, I can only let you sit at a table by yourself."

Although Sonny was somewhat upset when he heard this, he didn't say anything.

He knew the godfather well, if he really dared to say a word, he would be taken aside by the godfather to eat by himself.

"Now that everyone is here, let's serve the food."

Several servants put together the dishes, including vegetables, raisin pudding, fruit cakes, cocktails, and pasta.

Most of them are vegetarian, and the only meat is fish.

The fish looked good, with lemon and carrots on the bottom and a whole grilled fish on top.

Several large openings were cut on the body of the fish, and a slice of lemon was placed in each opening.

In addition, the fish was sprinkled with some garlic and looked as if it had been grilled.

Everyone chatted while eating and seemed to be enjoying themselves.

But Ye Heng was the only one who was cooking rice silently with a knife and fork.

It's not how delicious the food is, but that he always feels like he can't get it into his mouth.

The godfather seemed to have noticed Ye Heng's predicament, but instead of talking to Ye Heng, he glanced at John beside Ye Heng.

He and Ye Heng were a little far away. Once he opened his mouth, he might attract all the eyes at the dining table.

It's better to let John and Ye Heng, who are closer, strike up a conversation.

"Are you going home soon?" John asked softly.

Ye Heng looked at John and nodded, "Go back to celebrate the New Year, similar to your current Christmas and Christmas Eve."

John nodded. He didn't understand what Longguo did during the Chinese New Year, but when Ye Heng compared it to Christmas Eve and Christmas, he understood.

"How long do you plan to go back?"

"Probably, less than a month."

John was about to continue chatting with Ye Heng, but a voice from the side suddenly interrupted.

"Sorry to bother you, but you, are you the director?"

Ye Heng looked at the voice, who was sitting beside Mike.

His face looked a little thin, but it wasn't the kind of thinness that was starved, but a kind of sharp-edged thinness.

There was a peculiar, melancholy look on his face.

"This is my friend, Adrian, and one of my father's godsons."

Hearing this, Ye Heng immediately thought of the person Mike asked at the wedding.

"I've seen your movies, every one of them."

"To be honest, your movies are much better than those of other directors."

Adrian said, with a smile on his face, and the melancholy on his body made him look charming.

"I just have a different focus from other directors."

Ye Heng said, keeping a low profile as much as possible.

But Adrian shook his head.

"No, you're a genius, a movie genius."

Adrian seemed to appreciate Ye Heng very much.

"What do you think of me?" Adrian asked suddenly.

This question caught Ye Heng by surprise.

"I don't know what you mean?"

"That's right, being an actor."

Adrian explained, "I used to want to be an actor, but that was a childhood dream."

"At that time, my mother would show me some movies on DVD. They were all in black and white, but they were very good."

"It's just that those movies can no longer be found now, and the DVDs have long been scrapped. Those have become the tears of the times."

Adrian's words seemed to resonate with many people present, and they joined the topic one after another.

"Black and white movies, that was a wonderful era."

The memory of the godfather seemed to be brought back, and there was a trace of yearning in his eyes.

"The movies at that time were really great, but it's a pity that after so many years, I have forgotten the plots of those movies."

"Me too. I still vaguely remember some episodes. It seems that a man used his clothes to pave the way for the lady in front of the puddle. As a result, a car drove over and directly ran over his clothes and took the lady away."
